I've been in my own boat sitting out in this water looking at this view. Awesome!-Sandee. This is a Tip of The Hat to Sandee, my Co-Author and blog wizard.

The Blogger's Prayer

Lord help me to learn to spell without spellcheck, manage to visit all that visit me, and post regularly - all in 5 minutes a day, so that I can clean house and take care of my family. Help me to not look at every occurrence in my life as a blog post, and to quit taking pictures of weird things to share as well. Please Lord, help me to stop talking about my blog friends as though they are next door neighbors or someone I have known all of my life. And help me dear Lord, to think of something witty and wise to post tomorrow.

Cash for Clunkers

OK THIS IS A GREAT IDEA RIGHT? WRONG HERE IS WHY:YESTERDAYSAW A COMERCIAL BY GMC WANTING YOU TO USE THE CASH FOR CLUNKERS PROGRAM TO BUY A BRAND NEW PICKUP TRUCK(GAS GUZZLER) OR A NEW SUV(GAS GUZZLER). SO MUCH FOR GM BEING A BETTER COMPANY.CREATING BETTER CARS.
THIS IS WHY MY WIFE AND I BOUGHT A HONDA FIT 27 MPG CITY!!!! FORD,GM,CHRYSLER MATCH THAT KIND OF PERFORMANCE! MATCH THAT KINK OF DRIVE TO MAKE A CAR THAT WILL LAST.

  1. They have a similar scheme here where they give money if you trade in your car for a more economical one - that makes more sense. Good for you buying a car that uses less gas.

  2. Akelamalu,the concept is sound,the practice that is being done is not.say you have a car that gets 18 miles per gal. you can use this program to buy a new CAR Or TRUCK that get 20 mpg.where is the common sence in that.

  3. I agree with you. The American car companies seem to be just grabbing the money as usual.

  4. I saw some data that showed that most people were trading in to buy cars that got 10-12 mpg more than the clunker. That makes a lot of sense.

  5. Wanda's Wings,Yep.

    Grampy,Now a lot of people that use this program are doing the right thing.There are those that are abusing the program and are buying a gas guzzler that get just 2 miles a gal more that the clunker.

    Syd this is true.What I'm refering to it the lastest commercial that GMC is running saying use your clash for clunkers program with us to by a new TRUCK OF SUV,Now that is just a down right rip off of the program.
